5 days ago · The siege of Chittor failed to break Mewar's spirit, and the 1576 Battle of Haldighati resulted in heavy Mughal casualties. Maharana Pratap later reclaimed lost territories, and Akbar's ambition to annex Mewar remained unfulfilled until his death in 1605.
The Siege of Chittorgarh in 1567-1568 had led to the loss of the fertile eastern belt of Mewar to the Mughals. However, the rest of the wooded and hilly kingdom in the Aravalli range was still under the control of Maharana Pratap.
The city of Chittor was completely sacked by Alauddin's army and several temples were desecrated. Background. The Mewar region in north-western India was ruled by the Guhila dynasty, whose seat was located at the Chittor Fort (Chittorgarh). In 1299, Alauddin's general Ulugh Khan had raided the Mewar region on his way to Gujarat.
Following a grave battle and with much difficulty, he was able to conquer the Fort of Chittor. However, he found that Maharana Uday Singh and the then young prince, Pratap (heir to the throne), had been taken away from the battle, and their two chieftains, Jaimal and Patta, stood firm and continued to fight.
